Red Rover did the daily commute again today, reliably running daily at the moment. Touch wood.

I also had a near miss with something horrible: we've got an Ejoke that's been parked up outside for a while (broken timing chain). I had to lift the bonnet, but managed to escape after that and have nothing more to do with the thing. Phew!

You touched an Ejoke:eek: I would prescribe a week in quarantine and some tinkering with a proper rangie and you may just survive:D
 
Hope it's a wire off or a duff sensor and not lack of coolant:eek:
Thanks Data, it was the wire coming off the terminal of the sender, so just cleaned it up for luck and pushed it back on. Everything now working as normal, I wish all fixes were that easy.
Being that the VM is reputedly rather fragile as regards overheating I am a bit anal about checking levels - I do have the level sensor fitted in the expansion tank, and it works - but all the same, it gets checked out every 2nd or 3rd trip, just because.
 
I have one of these that i got for my vans joints i was hoping it will fit the p38 ones, i can always make up the correct size bit in the workshop.

Been told they are good on p38. I’m looking at dha kit for £50. Bits are for those blummin jeep things but it’s the giant C press I need mainly
 
Oof, bloody hell.
Is it petrol or diesel? Petrol will start going off in a month, at least with diesel you get about a year!
Is a dirty diesel, but I'd be lucky if that lasts me 3 weeks. I normally need a tank and a half a month.
 
Filled all my vehicles up just as the prices started to rise, only just had to refill the Transit and one P38. I never let them go below half full, even so they both cost well over €100 to fill:eek: Not doing many miles at the moment, since Covid we only shop once a fortnight and trips to the builders merchants are more carefully planned to minimise the visits.
